they will have to build bridge

Is a large, fine bridge which the
road has been offered the use OF

The contracts are let from Kansas
City to Fort Madison, Iowa, a dis

has decided to cross at Fort Madi-

further up the river than Keokuk.

from Topeka this morning with
the plans and specifications al
ready to let the contracts in twen-

any larger part of the contract to
one man, but one contractor can
take as many sections as he wants
to. They were met at the Coates

Normal Notes


The various societies carried
out q good programme the first
session after the holidays.
j. @. Adams was called home
Saturday. Quincy will, most like
ly not be back any more this year.
He has the beat wishes of all his
many friends and classmates for
his future success.
Wallis Dewitt returned to
school Monday. Wallis will add
one more to the elementary class.
Prof. Barnard was absent Thurs
day and Friday attending his faith
or during his fatal illness.
Miss Mary Guffey was visiting
the school Friday. Miss Guffey
will enter school next torn.
Most Of tho classes are reviewing
tho subjects studied the first half of
tho school year. Redoubled dill
gence seems to have struck the AS
and BIS since the Holidays. E1-
aminations are only two weeks
ahead.
Rev. Mr.. Weber, of LAGRANGE,
Mo-, conducted devotional exer-
else Tuesday morning. He visited
the school during the forenoon
hours. Also Mr.. Brown of the
Quincy News was visiting the
school Tuesday and taking notes.
Hence We may expect to hear from
ourselves from that Journal.
Miss Featherstone, principal of
Liberty school, Moberly, Mo-. Wis
tied the school Wednesday. Also
Mr.. B. Lamkin, of Kirksville, and
his brother of Haily City, Idaho,
were visiting the school Wednes-
day.

excitement died away into a per-
feet calm. Then We hear low
sweet strains of music represent
ing the songs of the angels. The
rustic of wings are heard IN the
dome of the temple; all eyes look
up and behold there appears two
beautiful angels with wide expand
ed wings, as they look down upon
the infant image. These angel
forms are fresco paintings on the
ceiling of the dome. Ihey are
painted on sky clouded back
ground and represent relief IN
such manner as to appear like
living forms in tho. sky. All the
while perfumed insence burns in
the sacred c:nsers 1.-THE guiding star
still stands over the altar until the
arrival and alteration of the shop
heras which soon follow. Dur
ing which time the chief priest
passes among the multitude with
the infant image in his arms while
the knseling congregation kiss its
feet. This continues until the
hour of midnight mass in which
more sorgs of rejoicing and pray
els of thanksgiving are offered,
after which, the multitudes return
to their homes to sing the litany,
offer family prayer, and close the
night in music and dancing. In
another part of the house the little
children all clothed in their neat
est attire, have formed little pro-
cessions, each carrying lighted
candle and thus they pass from
room to room singing hymns, and
songs of praise. At the same
time the boys are out in the partio
(court yard) sending up toy ba-
looms, sky-rockets and discharging
their muskets, filled with grass,
and gravel, and the old folks in q
very pleasing mood, are encourag-
ing every thing and entertaining
all guests in that whole souled
manner which is one of the finest
traits in the Spanish-Mexiean
character. Thus all continued un-
til about three in the morning
which virtually ended the Christ
mas festivities, and we returned to
our room we'll pleased with the
scenes and pleasures of the night.
